Well spotted Martin, also worth adding that right on the preview of the free exercise Weaverbird is being used and I don’t see any mention or note of the plug-in or its Author (Giulio) :
Might be the case that they’re being properly referenced somewhere else, but please do make sure to coin the authors as is needed, even if they release their work on open-source licenses free for everybody to use, they’re still entitled (legally) to be recognized for their work.
Don’t want to sound mean, but you’re already using a pirated version of the software to showcase this material, don’t sum up another stripe to the tiger…
yeah, we just cracked your ebook and put it online for free…you know, we don’t have much money here in our country and we need it, so thanks for your work.
